The starters struggle but Randle won’t struggle forever and Kemba was turning a corner. If the starters just become average than the bench unit will make up the difference. Burks, IQ, Rose and Toppin are so good in their roles when the majority of the team is intact. Toppin is great, but he doesn’t need more minutes. He is perfect in his 15 mpg energy, finisher role with that bench group. Grimes and McBride aren’t ready for prime time yet but along with Sims they make an excellent developmental bunch that’s likely on the outside of the rotation at full strength. Need good young players in the pipeline and they give us a PG, wing and a big that fit. Knicks have had tough luck along the way and just need to get healthy and maybe find a real upgrade over Fournier with the surplus of draft picks. Or at least someone who won’t just go thru the motions. But all is not lost with this team yet.
Willis Reed, Bill Bradley, and co aren't walking through that door.
Yes I agree, we need Starks, Oak, Mase, Mark Jackson and Ewing all in their primes back
We're getting close.
Kemba Walker.
Nerlens Noel.
And then Derrick Rose away from being 100% healthy.

Yes. Yes, our Big Three.
